[MOC] Caribbean Fortress 1762

Recommended Posts

Caribbean Fortress 1762.jpg

Dear all,

First, let me introduce myself ! I'm a Belgian fan, member of BELUG since 2015, but fall again in LEGO since 2010.
I've already made some exhibitions with 2 large dioramas, one about the battle of Waterloo 1815 (with J.L. Hornblower), and the other about Old Castle Black Falcon's Fortress.

It is a pleasure for me to submit my Caribbean Fortress 1762

It's a WIP, I'm planning or not to add another floor on the main building + an harbor, docks, shipyard, isles ...

Thanks in advance for your feedbacks and comments !!

ARRRRRR!!! :pir-grin::pir-murder:

Welcome to EB!

Your fort looks really amazing. I like the thick walls. Look very realistic.

Your queen annes revenge is very dusty :pir-grin::wink: but the sails are in a very good condition which is nice. I do also have very big dust problems in my room. :)

Looking forward to see the harbour docks and shipyard. I hope you will build a crane on the docks as well.

Thank for your welcome to both !

(Queen Anne's revenge is brand new ... I just put it on a shelf for 7 years, so imagine my face when I saw the dust layer ! :) But I needed it to represent the scale of the fort on the pictures !) Dust definitely don't like legos ! :)

I planned a crane to be build where the three palm trees are, on the left of the fort, but one smaller on the docks would be a great idea. If you have some pictures or ideas on how it has to be I would appreciate !

And what about add one floor more on the main building ? Do you think it's too much ?

Welcome in Eurobricks ! 

You've done an excellent fortress here ! :thumbup:

Great job ! Looking forward for all the enhancements you've planned to build.

Have you considered joining our pirate building game Brethren of the brick seas ? (Eslandola for the win... :grin:)

Hi Faladrin,

First, Thanks for your welcome !

Unfortunately, English is not my first language and there's a lot of storytelling in your game. In addition I prefer to build and let the imagination take the lead !

I have a goal of 1 large layout every 1 or 2 years to exhibit, and the next one would be Castle themed.

Awesome build @Ced72. A lot of details, minifigposing, the bombardment canons look great and the fort really has the Caribbean feel to it.

Hi Fraunces,

Thank you for your comments !

A big crane has been added. And I'm actually working on a small neighboring town (8 houses at the moment).

I'll bring some updated pictures next time !
